Hi all, We just discovered something unexpected when creating Digital Object Instances, which is that when a DO Instance is constructed without a thumbnail URL--i.e. the DO Instance just has a single file version and it's the link to the actual thing-ArchivesSpace adds a "?" to the end of that URL when a user clicks on it in the public interface. For instance, if the File URI is "http://www.cnn.com";, then clicking this link in the PUI will take you to "http://www.cnn.com/?"; .
The CNN website still works with that question mark, but when we use an ARK to link to a record in our digital repository, "https://n2t.net/ark:/81985/n2dr2rt09"; becomes "https://n2t.net/ark:/81985/n2dr2rt09?"; ...which is an entirely separate page. Is this a bug, or is this supposed to be happening? If it's a bug I can submit a ticket. We're on version 2.8.1.
